Hear, hear. I smell worse than the average person (wait - let me re-phrase that - I have a worse sense of smell) and I STILL say most people wear far too much perfume/cologne.

_ **Hint** _: if I’m walking down an empty hallway, and I’m still gagging? Whoever walked there previously needs to tone it waaaaaay back.

Mowed through an ant mound last Saturday, and I still have to be careful about getting dressed in the morning, as I own exactly one pair of shoes that don’t rub and irritate the welts.

BO is nasty but it doesn’t have the same effect on my breathing as whatever this chemical crap is, I’d much prefer a scent free place if it means I don’t have to worry about the people who plug in scentsy or glade or bath themselves in cologne or perfume resulting in the nagging sinus headache I now have and possibly resulting in my having to use my inhaler.

I was gonna say: you should complain to HR, and then … ☹ I re-read your 1st sentence. I’m sorry.

I just cleaned my reading glasses not an hour ago and I swear I’ve been handling them gingerly ever since but now it looks like they’ve been fondled by someone in a 3-way with stack of fries and tub of Vaseline. And no it wasn’t me. I’m in a committed relationship with my Vaseline.

I LOL’d! (Fellow glasses-wearer here … )

I hate you. I just wanted you to know that.

(Not really. Hope the biopsy comes out OK…)
